• Thank you very much | Diolch yn fawr

    All at JackArmy.net would like to thank everyone who has played a part on this site over the past 25 years whether that is through writing, contributing, moderating, posting or just visting and reading.

    Without any of you the work that has gone into the site would have been pointless and we will always be proud that we built, generated and managed a community that was such a big part of the Swansea City supporting life for so long.

    It has been a pleasure to bring to you the site for so long but the time is now right to turn the lights out for the last time but we do it both with a heavy heart and a sense of pride driven by the so many messages received since we announced the closure.

    The site will remain here for a period until we archive and mothball it for the last time later this summer but all aspects are in a read only format.

    Thank you though for all the memories

    Phil Sumbler
    Owner, jackarmy.net

Just spent 10m on Kyogo that used to be at Celtic , scored 91 in 120 for them I think. They’re gonna be a problem this year
 
In terms of wealth of ownership, we are bottom 5 and I imagine in terms of transfer budget and wage budget also. Half the division is "going to be a problem"
 
Mental money on a 30 year old, he didn’t manage a goal in a proper league in France.
 
It's just silly money for a guy at his age. He scored goals in Scotland but so did Shankland who got over 60 goals in the last 3 years in that league.

They will be up and around there for sure, they are a team riding on the crest of a wave and a confident fan base but that sort of money on a 30yr old is crazy.
 
This season will be tough for everybody.. squad depth will be key for a top 6 place for any team

Like us to get our home form back on track and get the fans back
Squad depth is very important and Birmingham will have numbers which will help them.

We're nowhere near bottom 5 for wealth of ownership

Exactly, the only difference with Birmingham is they have high commercial revenue like Wrexham which gives them more flexibility spending with PSR unlike us, no doubt we’ve got the cash to spend if we had a high commercial revenue.
 
I watched a replay of the semi final 2nd leg against Forest last night, the comms were saying that in that season we had the best home defense of any side in the top four divisions - just 11 goals conceded in 23 home matches.

Making the Liberty a fortress again would surely be at the top of Sheehan's priorities this season.

Listen up, the Rennes manager who signed Kyogo from Celtic was sacked the next day, the incoming manager stated on his first day that Kyogo wasn't in his plans, Kyogo featured in six matches totalling in just over two hours on the grass, for whatever reason he wasn’t given a chance. Kyogo will score goals for Birmingham, bookmark if you want.
